Hmmm.. I think that's worth a shot. I've been thinking of replacing my windows partition with a few Hurd partitions anyway, so this should be easy enough to do. > If you have another box, have you checked whether nfs can be used for > building glibc? AFAIR, nfs should not have any ~1GB limit. I have avoided NFS for building because I don't want to have to work about the pfinet problems. Otherwise I'd cheerfully borrow 4 GB from my Fiance's machine. ;) Tks, Jeff Bailey
